        Moving Central from one machine to another machine


 1. While moving the central from one machine to another machine take the backup of the following directories

        1.central\gen
        2.central\conf
        3.central\mysql\data        
        4.central\users   
        5.central\apache\conf\ssl.crt
        6.central\supportcenter\mysql\data   

   If rebranding is done also take the backup of the following directories   

          
1.central\html          
        2.central\images
            
3.central\webclient\...\images


 2.Install the new central and replace all the corresponding backed up directories

 3.Edit the serverparameters.conf file present under Central\conf and edit the follwings,                                          

    APACHE_SERVER_NAME [give the ip or hostname of the new central] 

    LISTEN_INTERFACE [give the ip or hostname of the new central]


 4.Edit the NocServerDetails.xml under <probe-home>/conf directory in each of the installed probes..Here you need to change the "NocServerName" parameter to reflect the ipaddress of the new central.

 5.Run the ssl_gen.bat file from central available under central\bin,once it has been completed,it will create the my_ssl.https.truststore and the file will be  available under central\gen,rename the file into https.truststore and copy this file to probe\conf directory.This has to be done on all the installed probes


                               

  5.Now start the Central Server


        Moving Probe from one machine to another machine

 

 1.While moving the probe from one machine to another machine take the backup of the following directories

          1.probe\gen
          2.probe\conf
          3.probe\mysql\data           
          4.probe\users

If you have Inventory or Security Modules  
         
          5.probe\scanfi\conf
          6.probe\scanfi\mysql\data    

  If rebranding is done also take the backup of the following directories   

          
1.probe\html          
           2.probe\imagess
          
3.probe\webclient\...\images

 4.Now start the Probe                           


      
Changes needs for Remote Control if IP/DNS of the Central Server Changes

                 
1.Stop the Central Server

                  2.Change the IP/DNS of the central server by editing serverparameter.conf under central/conf directory and Provide   
                           
                            APACHE_SERVER_NAME  IP/DNS(new Central)
                            LISTEN_INTERFACE         IP/DNS(new Central)
                  
                  3.Go to the C:\Program Files\AdventNet\ME\RemoteControl Directory where the Remotecontrol Agent is Running,Edit the line under Settings.conf file
                            GatewayHost: IP/DNS(new Central)

                  4.Restart the Central Server

    Note: Alternate Solution    
                        
                  
After changing the IP/DNS of the Central Server uninstall and Reinstall the Remotecontrol Agent again
